1. Learning from Chris Norton over three decades—Part III

Flash forward to 2010. I was now a tenured full professor. I was working with two young male Ph.D. students who in some ways reminded me of myself thirty years earlier—inspired by feminism, wanting to have an impact on the world.

The media has a key role to play in the construction of our knowledge of crime and policing.

George Dixon came to represent the archetypal ‘British Bobby’, a pillar of the community who was widely respected.
